@James Forsyth

To assist with monitoring JIRA, suggest subscribing to this filter: https://jira.onap.org/issues/?filter=11532, which does pick up AAI-1913 - AAI queries not working in SB-06 Open as discussed. Also sent a message to onap-discuss to ask if JIRA Notification Scheme and new email list could be setup as well.

Status of History Backend

There is a document which shows us as delivering the history backend in Casablanca - need to discuss if we are providing an accurate picture of what's available in Casablanca.

Hbase to Cassandra migration

@Amit Sinha

Bell Canada has a requirement to migrate their A&AI Graph DB backend from HBase to Cassandra.

We are enabling this effort.

We have been investigating GraphAdmin code in ONAP, which seems to support the framework.

We would like to make enhancements to this framework and contribute to ONAP.

The initial enhancements we would like to accomplish are:

• Provide option to the end-user to select FROM and TO Version

  • The current code doesn’t have this option

• Support schema migration to V14

  • Current support exists for V11->V13

Our goals:

• AAI backend upgrade from HBase to Cassandra (V11 to V14)

• Seamless upgrade and rollback of AAI DB

AAI UI documentation or user guide

@Keong Lim

Recently updated AAI Graphical User Interface due to colleagues wanting to use the AAI UI.

Is there a more comprehensive and authoritative documentation or user guide for AAI UI?

The main issue is that it is not clear how to get started - @Francis Paquette will look at what's on the readthedocs site, I think we need to port what Keong has put in the wiki to the main docs repo at a minimum.

Schema Service

@Venkata Harish Kajur

Discuss about the Schema Microservice

11th Oct: Use Cases for Dynamic AAI Schema Changes

Support for 2 OOM deployment types

@Former user (Deleted)

Motivation: Decrease the resource footprint for A&AI (ONAP) deployments

Idea: we could support 2 different deployments 1. full (normal) deployment and 2. barebones deployment. The point of the "barebone" deployment would be to deploy only the essential services necessary for proper functioning of A&AI (leaving out services like cacher, sparky, graphadmin, having 1 cassandra node instead of 3 or 5 etc).

In order to reduce hardware/cloud costs (mainly the memory footprint) it could be beneficial to support a minimalistic A&AI deployment.

5G PNF Software upgrade

@wangyaoguang

@Benjamin Cheung

We have a 5G related functionality in Change management, 5G PNF Software upgrade. https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/5G+-+PNF+Software+Upgrade. 

Right now, PNF software version is modeled and accepted in SDC, and also approved in Modeling subcommittee and TSC.https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/TSC+2018-07-26+Meeting+Agenda. (Modeling report)

We are not familiar with A&AI. The target of this functionality is to  update PNF Sw version when upgrade completion with specified pnfid. Could you and your team give us some help on this?

1)      Is there any available  APIs provided by AAI for this? 

2)      If yes, can you give me some details on it. If not, could you and AAI team provide support in Casablanca? We would like to provide contributions if needed.

@wangyaoguang to follow-up with SDC team and send conclusion results to @James Forsyth
